Then find a different workshop/forum/launcher to pair with the Steam store

In no world is it worse than what we have now

States there is nothing worse. Can't provide a single example of something better.

Maga works won't realise because they've been trained to fear and/or dislike the "woke" govt employees.

It's just another group to blame for all the wars, expensive groceries, regulations protecting consumers, health care, social work

Quoting from hackernews comments

“In April 1982, the FBI recruited Martynov as an agent. He stayed in place and began feeding Soviet secrets to his FBI handlers.” So his grandfather worked for the US.

Coristine has a brief but colorful history that includes being fired from Path Networks, a cybersecurity company, for giving company documents to a competitor. He apparently palled around with a criminal hacking group called The Com and, according to a Telegram account associated with him, had solicited hacking services online. In 2021, he founded a company called Tesla.Sexy LLC that, according to Wired, “controls dozens of web domains, including at least two Russian-registered domains. One of those domains, which is still active, offers a service called Helfie, which is an AI bot for Discord servers targeting the Russian market.”

So, no answer then?

Sounds like a free market proponent.

Can I give the classic example of US healthcare where for very minor benefits, the absolute richest can afford to have great healthcare whilst everyone else seems to be crippled (financially) by even minor ailments.

But the industry is worth billions, the line goes ever up, and the shareholders are happy. Just fuck the customer.

Name an example of a better workshop, I've used nexus mods and it's a complicated mess that requires a subscription to get normal download speeds for content created for free by other people

Because each independent section would try to make more money and end up breaking things and adding new shit users don't want but marketing execs think are good.

More like rats not joining a leaking ship. I've been through enough windows upgrades to know: Don't be the first! You'll only end up paying to be a software tester for a product MS had to ship before it's ready to keep the shareholders happy.

Don't be the first one in the water after the shark warning ...

In conclusion:

  • Bad weather for planes

  • Average (good?) weather for Toronto as this time of year

It looks like this is being filmed from another aircraft (big pillar in the middle of the window). Why was this pilot filming, it seems like they'd see planes landing all the time so was there something special about the landing - bad weather perhaps ..

Podcasts are thinking for people who can't read.

I'm making a rather cruel joke, but I do find some friends who struggle (lazy / busy, I'm not sure why) to read a news article I might share with them and, who will share with me some 20 sec Instagram clip with the words flashing up with Peterson or Rogan "slamming", "owning", "destroying" the libs. A quick Google usually dispels the quote or shows that the subject is not so simple.

I should also add I do listen to podcasts and radio and there's nothing wrong with both.

Does the 5 seats sticker include the driver?

 

The primary contractor for the Space Launch System rocket, Boeing, is preparing for the possibility that NASA cancels the long-running program.
On Friday, with less than an hour's notice, David Dutcher, Boeing's vice president and program manager for the SLS rocket, scheduled an all-hands meeting for the approximately 800 employees working on the program. The apparently scripted meeting lasted just six minutes, and Dutcher didn't take questions.

Here it comes, the big payoff. Elon's lost the Tesla EV subsidies but will instead get the NASA contacts

 

While beneficial to consumers who are able to take advantage, for example by charging an electric car or running appliances, it also threatens to undermine the viability of Europe's renewable energy projects, which are critical to hitting net zero targets.

"It's akin to a hara-kiri," said Bjarne Schieldrop, chief commodities analyst at Swedish lender SEB "Everyone knows that if you produce too much oil, the price will crash and producers lose money. And there's nothing different in renewable energy and power either."

I almost can't believe the absolute shitiness of this. I suppose the implication is why would producers build power stations (no doubt with govt. subsidises!) if they can't make a profit!

 

The Fen Raft Spider is roughly the size of an adult male’s hand, and can spin webs as big as pizzas (25cm).

They are also semi-aquatic and can run across the water’s surface to capture their prey.

 

I personally have a huge backlog of games I'm happily playing through on the deck. And, having been burnt a few times (Cyberpunk, No Mans Sky ..), I very rarely buy new full priced games anyway (better to wait for a discount and some patches!)

But according to this rather clickbate article ...

In the last month alone, we’ve seen three disappointing examples of games that are too demanding for the Deck. Star Wars Outlaws is unplayable on Low settings, even with FSR set to “Ultra Performance.” Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 can’t reach a steady 30fps at the lowest quality setting. And based on the demo, Final Fantasy 16 is unplayable without FSR and Frame Generation, and afflicted with stuttering and horrible frame pacing with those scaling features enabled.

I'm not sure I remember the part where Indy is buried chest deep in sand with one fist defiantly raised ... It looks more like a character model glitched under the map!

Ubisoft Exec Says Gamers Need to Get ‘Comfortable’ Not Owning Their Games for Subscriptions to Take Off

Ubishit's showing what's most important to them as a company (Suprise suprise it's not about making games)

Shareholders want those regular subscription fees rolling in.
